Curiosities

Sunrise - from my bedroom window *-*

Crab food

It's been a month since I got here, and even so I still don't know everything about korean culture. Every week I learn something new. And there seems to be lots of things that may be odd for foreigners. Like, korean people burp while walking. I have seen many koreans burping anywhere on the streets. I know it's common in some countries to burp after the meals, but... where I come from, it is not polite. So it's been funny to me.

Another similar thing, also not polite in Brazil, is the habit of eating soup really noisily and talking while your mouth is full of food. It is common here.



At the beach - it's really cold and windy on the winter



Also, like in Brazil, car drivers are really angry. They're always honking at you anywhere with no apparent reason... haha

All these might seem bad or impolite to some foreigners, but remember culture is unique in each country. For instance, in Greek you must never wave your hand when saying hello, like in American style. It is very rude to greeks...
